Thoreau: Listen For New Species
I understand he wasn’t talking about “new species” in the same way that cryptozoologists do, but this thoughtful quote for the day speaks to how we have to “listen” as well as “look.” The air is full of birds, and as I go down the causeway, I distinguish the seringo note. You have only to come forth each morning to be surely advertised of each newcomer into these broad meadows. Many a larger animal might be concealed, but a cunning ear detects the arrival of each new species of bird. These birds give evidence that they prefer the fields of [...]
Rare Sumatran Striped Rabbit Photographed
The Sumatran Striped Rabbit (Nesolagus netscheri) has been captured on film, again. The appearances of the Sumatran striped rabbit are so rare that when seen in the West, many believe someone is pulling an Easter bunny joke. But indeed the appearance of one of these in the wilds of Indonesia has been breaking news at week. Here are the details and some background. In 1972, one confirmed sighting was made of what was said to be a Sumatran Striped Rabbit. The last specimen was actually collected in 1916, and was presumed extinct until photographed with the TrailMaster remotecam in 1997, [...]
New Info: Bigfoot Attack, Bluff Creek, 1958
Can we learn new things about old cases? Possibly so. I get all kinds of emails and letters. People, for example, read Bigfoot! The True Story of Apes in America, and write me with their personal stories, insights, and criticisms. I appreciate them all. Today, I received an intriguing typed letter from a man who lives deep in the woods of northern California, who had recently read Bigfoot!. He wanted to set me straight on some details of what really happened at Bluff Creek in 1958. After opening the missive by telling me a bit about himself, the letter writer [...]
Olaf the Giant Display
This is the card that was over Olaf the Giant display. The same card was used at the Jones Museum / Seattle Center, when the Museum was on Highway 99 – north of Lynnwood, Washington, before it moved to Seattle Food Circus. Thanks to Rich for sharing this from his growing collection of Seattle area historical attractions.
1800s’ Hairy Wild Men – Fools’ Pranks or Reality?
Chad Arment noted on April 1st: “Loren Coleman has posted an account at Cryptomundo of an early April Fool’s Day Sasquatch story by John Green (before Green became interested in the phenomenon). That may have been one of the first news pranks that actually used the term Sasquatch, but there is a much earlier April 1st tale of a hairy wild man.” Arment goes on to tell about an older story from back East, during the 19th century. Yes, I had in mind, specifically, the earliest “Sasquatch” and “Bigfoot” (Pacific Northwest) April 1st journalistic joke, so I’m not surprised that [...]
Enigma En Español
The Spanish magazine Enigma has published a new cryptozoology article by Gustavo Sanchez Romero. Here are scans of some pages. The sidebars are filled with Lorenzo and Loren. You just can escape us, I guess.
Spring Skiing for Bigfoot in Maine: Cryptozoo News Updates
Today is April 5th. It seems like it should be spring outside, right? Believe it or not, some people think that because I live in Maine, I’m a resident of Canada. I get strange emails. Truth is, on this Thursday I feel like I’m in the Himalayas. This morning there is about a foot of snow that fell overnight in Portland, Maine. Today is the opening day for the cryptid-named Portland Sea Dogs baseball team, but, of course, that event has to be postponed. So, back to thoughts of cryptozoology…. Humans may be dealing with incredibly unbelievable Easter/Passover skiing in [...]

Brooding About Bigfooters
Sometimes I allow my thoughts to drift to trying to understand the “people” part of the Bigfoot quest. In my Bigfoot! The True Story of Apes in America (NY: Paraview Pocket – Simon and Schuster, 2003), I wrote Chapter 15, “The Bigfooters” to detail my thoughts on the matter of the why and the what of the searchers. I added historical and people-specific notes to this matter in my more casual analysis of the folks “looking” for Bigfoot in The Field Guide of Bigfoot and Other Mystery Primates and Tom Slick: True Life Encounters in Cryptozoology. In Bigfoot!, I decided [...]
